There is one sweet shop in Sagar (Bundelkhand) that sells excellent Chironji ki Barfi laden with ghee. A perfect LCHF dessert if made with a non caloric sweetener.

By the looks of it, Chaudhary Mishthanna is just like any other ordinary mithai shop, but then appearances are often deceptive. :)

The barfis are sold out while the dough/mixture is still hot, and barfis are set. 

Chaudhary ki Chironji barfi, aur Gujarati Namkeen ki Sev ... you can feast on them for hours before being satisfied. :)

Namkeen mein toh Ujjain ki Jain ki long sev

Never tasted Jain's sev, but Bafna's namkeens are the best namkeens that I have had anywhere in the world. :)

लक्ष्मी रोडवर शांती स्टोअर्स मधे चारोळ्या मिळाल्या.

५० ग्रेम ६० रु. बदमाचाच भाव आहे.

वास येऊ नये म्हणून फ्रीजमधे ठेवाव्या लागतात असे दुकानदार म्हणाला.

खवट नाहीयेत. :) (इथल्या काही मेम्बरर्स सारख्या. :D )

स्वामी …

मार्केट यार्ड मध्ये रु  ८००/-  किलो आहेत ….

बदाम ६४०/८००.

पण ह्या जुन्या आहेत…नविन पुढच्या महिन्यात येतील (खवट  नसलेल्या)

पिस्ता आणि चारोळी फ्रीज मध्ये ठेवाव्यात जास्त टिकतात …

लक्ष्मि रोडला येत तर प्रत्यक्ष दर्शन द्या स्वामि….

you can have that same as same quantity as almonds....

It is growing as wild in madhya pradesh-maharashtra border.

At my childhood we use to collect the same from Jungle and feast on those nuts all afternoon.

Gum from the tree i very good for bones

Uncracked is available at very cheap rate...

may be 50 Rs Kg from tribal.

I don't know at what rate they sell in cities but more than price effectiveness I have some not so fond memories of these garnishes in shrikhand because 50+% times I ended up getting a bad/ rancid chironji (खवट चारोळी). It would totally spoil the fun of the Shrikhand.

For everybody's benefit Cure said --

some people have the bad luck so just attribute it to the bad luck and leave it at that.

@Cure खरे आहे. खवट नशीब असेल तर काय करणार! पण मी म्हणतो एखाद्याच्या नशिबात चारोळ्या नाहीत तर बदाम आहेत. नशीब खवट का चांगले ते तुम्ही ठरवा. 😋

[Its true if one has bad luck not much can be done. But I say if someone is not destined for chironji but destined for almonds instead, then you decide if thats bad luck or good luck]

Something to lift our spirits -

When Dattaji Shinde(Scindia) was about to be decapitated by Ahmed Shah Abdali at Panipat, he asked Dattaji - "Kyon Dattaji, aur ladenge?". To which Dattaji replied, "Jiyenge to aur bhi ladenge", and was promptly beheaded by enraged Abdali.

We too will continue fighting in the same spirit. :)

cure profile image
cureAdministrator in reply to jingale

jingle baba......kyo patel.... aur bhi ladenge....

beacuse shinde shindiya nme came afterwards... initially they were called Patil.... even mahadjee shinde was known in history as patil baba.

and fight was in UP not on panipat....very precisely on 'Shukratal'

But yes.... spirit is same.....yes bachenge toh fir ek bar chaudhari mishtanna ja ke 1 kg chironjee ka halwa khayenge. lol

cure profile image
cureAdministrator in reply to cure

Guess what??? I had very good relations with Madhav rao shindiya....his ADC mr. mandhare was my good friend...

When I visited Gwalior palace and was going thru the vanshaval.....there was no mention of Dattaji shinde....

Jis ke badaulat Gwalior state unko mila... uska namo nishan nahi.....

But its different story how Patil baba/mahadjee got this state of Gwalior after Jayappa shinde's death on panipat.

jingale profile image

Was his name omitted because he was only a half brother of Mahadji? BTW, Mahadji and Dattaji must be turning in their graves seeing their present day descendants licking the feet of a firangi. 

cure profile image
cureAdministrator in reply to jingale

yes...real waris was Jayappa....but he got killed at panipat...and u know how???? very sad....he got dumped inside a hole created for waste material of slaughter of animals for food.

and took revenge of this... marathas attacked Rohilas....and even took out remains of najibudaulla from his grave....

slaughtered 25000 Pathans in one night on same buradi ghat.

further.... do u know at Gopal mandir at Ujjain there is door fitted which was taken back from Afganistan by Byajbai shinde??

original door was FROM SOMNATH

cure profile image
cureAdministrator in reply to cure

ujjaindarshan.com/ujjain-go...

'The main entry door to the garbhgriha is of silver that was originally part of the Somnath Temple. Ghaznavi carried it to Ghazni as part of his loot. Mohammad Shah Abdali brought it to Lahore. Mahadji Scindia during his sack of Lahore brought it to Ujjain and had it installed at the Gopal Mandir.'

Yes. The present Mahakaleshwar temple too was rebuilt by Ranoji, after being demolished by Iltutmish in 13th century.

The Maratha empire ushered revival of sorts of temples, e.g. the Konark Sun temple was discovered by Marathas during their expedition of Odisha. Construction of new temples and renovation of the existing ones across India by Ahilyabai is well known.

Malharrao Holkar had plans of demolishing the Gyanvapi mosque at Kashi, and rebuild the Vishweshwar temple at the same spot. But local Brahmins pleaded them to consolidate their power before attempting this. :)

very true.....scindiyas and holkar had rivalry....

it was very complex politics that time....

Rani Ahilya bai was great....she donated to almost all important temples in India....

Hmmmm since u said about kashi vishweshwar.... and gyanvapi....

have u been there ???

why it is called Gyan vapi...??

what gyan it imparts???

have u been to Garbhagriha of kashi vishvanath??

I stand corrected. First heard of this story from Shri. Ninadrao Bedekar at the launch of a book on Panipat war, and hence the confusion. Is Shukratal same as Baradi Ghat?

yes....modern days mujaffar nagar...

and after panipat.....on same buradi ghat....marathas slaughtered 25000 pathan to revenge dattaji.
